2. Since the berakhah of Sheheheyanu is a joyful thanksgiving expression and it is difficult to mention la'zeman hazeh with the requisite happy heart during these days, it is a Sephardic custom to refrain from eating new fruit or wearing new clothing during the three weeks so as to avoid reciting Sheheheyanu.
